What pushrods for 317 heads on ls1?

Looking at some 6.0 heads with their stock springs/rockers, wondering what length pushrods to use with stock ls1 internals?

You should be fine with the same pushrods if you use the same cam and Heads gaskets size but it's always better to measure and be sure

As long as the heads haven't been milled, 7.400" should be the ticket with a factory gasket. It never hurts to measure but as long as everything is to factory spec's these should be fine. Be sure to check preload when you assemble everything.
